BAMBERG — A nine-run third inning by defending Class A champion Bamberg-Ehrhardt placed Lamar in a hole it never escaped from in a lower state elimination game.
Reece Poole’s solo home run in the top of the first put the Silver Foxes ahead 1-0. Bamberg tied the game in the bottom of the second after capitalizing on a fielding error by Poole at third base, then broke it open in the third after sending 14 batters to the plate.
Trevor Norris took the loss, allowing nine runs on eight hits.
Rob Joye was 3-for-3 with an RBI for the Silver Foxes.
The Red Raiders will travel to Johnsonville on Friday for the lower state final at 5:30 p.m.
